It will. With how Pierre Poilievre is doing in the polls, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Trudeau is a wet rag and Singh suffers from an image problem. Quebec is going to vote for the Bloc and the Parti québécois and a referendum on Quebec Independence will probably be triggered.

RIGHT??? 💯💯💯

Like that’ll ever happen.

The party is held by a group of political elites who are all about the establishment and power.

There needs to be a new party, a labor party, to represent the working class Americans.

I use Firefox with ublock on my phone and I get no ads. Or I watch them in Newpipe.

Well I guess their plan worked

Oh I am paying attention. I know that’s at stake. I was born in the early 80’s so I’ve seen the progress. And I’ve seen the conservatives chipping away at it for the past 20 years. Both in the US and Canada. (I’m Canadian)

I’ve been stuck with the massive democratic power of the boomer masses my whole adult life and saw them vote in these conservative and neo liberal parties that have completely destroyed whatever social safety net that they benefited from and any freedom and equality only for them to have more money to put in their retirement funds.

I was hoping the Gen Zs would join our ranks, but social media, corporate lies, toxic ideologies meant to address their insecurities, and now AI have fucked up their perspective.

I don’t think that’s what they meant. What they meant is that those who adhere to the virilist ideologies found online are the ones who do. Because apparently violence and aggressive behaviour is viril.

Porn isn’t going anywhere. LoL

Divorce either.

Gay marriage? It’s already dangerous to just come out, let alone get married.

And contraception? They’ren already losing that one too in many states thanks to local governments anyway.

Gen Z grew up on social media. The same that spreads the propaganda, the fake information and the toxic masculinity bullshit.

They also grew up with an impossible social economic context where they barely have any hope. Trump’s making promises to make the country great again. What have they got to lose?

Why is anyone surprised?

In Switzerland, the basic training lasts a year I think? And is meant to teach how the army works and how to use weapons and not just rifles and pistols and knives. Depending on their role they also learn how to use artillery, mortars, how to use maps, how to use vehicles and tanks, how to make calculations and navigate and so much more.

The whole point of this is that when shit hits the fan, any additional training takes a lot less time.

It has to be well implemented and taught well. Maybe in your case it wasn’t and you have a bad experience of it.

Any country that’s serious about training it’s people to be ready for combat in case of a serious invasion will probably do a better job than one that isn’t because they want to be prepared.

In any case, I can understand why you would feel the way you do if it was implemented poorly in your country.

Mandatory military service only trains them in the basics so they are ready when the risk becomes reality.

Switzerland has mandatory service. France used to have mandatory service. It never created what your said it creates.

I think you’re making a lot of assumptions.

You have a better idea for NATO members and other US allies when Trump decides to break all ties and befriend Russia? If they don’t have enough resources in the military to defend themselves, what are they supposed to do?

Time to make military service mandatory again.

You reap what you fucking sow.

I’m really wondering if there’s been election interference from GOP agents. Republicans are known for projecting, so I wouldn’t be surprised.

I took a peek at your comment history and holy moly…

You’re one angry person. Calling everyone Nazis and writing in all caps. All you do is insult people.

We’re trying to do better on Lemmy.

Instead, why don’t you try asking questions like why people think a certain way, ask to clarify their point of view and provide intelligent counter arguments.

Do better.

Read your comment and ask yourself who’s loathsome and insufferable and being a prick.

You’ve done nothing but jump to conclusions and insult me gratuitously.

I hope your attitude improves over time because this is really not constructive to rational and intelligent discussions.

Good bye.

If jumping to conclusions were an Olympic sport, you’d get the gold medal and break the world record.

Go outside and take a deep breath, friend. We’re actually on the same team.

LoL I’m not even American. I can’t vote in the US.

Take your attitude and go back to Reddit where you belong.

*Genocide denying???

Brother you don’t know who you’re talking to.

Speaking of Nazi, congratulations on getting an actual Nazi genocide supporter elected by not voting for Kamala Harris.
